Feature Question / Request - Job Templates

kclark

Is there a way to create a job template that I can use to create new jobs?  I know that examples are included as scheduled tasks, but I am having to create 40-50 jobs (& growing) and it would be a real time-saver to simply use a template, or even copy from an existing job.  Instead it looks like I will have to re-type the email address, subject, notification options, etc.. for every job individually.

Also, has anyone run into any issues with large numbers of scheduled tasks?

Thanks

Just curious, what are the 40-50 jobs you are creating in Cirrus?

You can save time with the setting up the email settings by saving your default email settings to File > Settings > Notification Defaults.  When you create a new job, under the notifications tab, simply check the box for "E-mail results" and the settings you specified within the global settings will automatically be populated.  Also, the Windows user account you specify in the Startup Wizard (File > New/Open Database Wizard > Scheduled Job Authentication) will also appear by default under the Security tab. 

Populating those default should save some time.  I will also add a feature request to be able to copy existing jobs.
